I have 1 after wearing the chronology
Chapter 42
Mrs. Wang knew that the Chen family would not agree to this marriage, and the reason why she agreed to Wang Xia's request for a matchmaker was just to make her give up.
In addition, even if the Chen family can agree, Mrs. Wang doesn't want Wang Xia to marry—Chen Wan is so weak, can that thing work?
Since she was a child, her daughter hadn't suffered a bit because she looked like her.She dared to pat her chest and said that even the daughters of urbanites are rarely raised so carefully, and Mrs. Wang couldn't bear her to marry a worthless man.
In fact, Mrs. Wang already had the best candidate for a son-in-law in her heart. The son of their fellow village party secretary, he is well-looking, has gone to junior high school, and works hard.The most important thing is that the branch secretary's family only has such a son. As long as Wang Xia marries in and gives birth to a golden grandson for them, then the mother will be more expensive than the son, and the branch secretary's family will not be able to rely on her for everything?
When Wang Xia was young, Mrs. Wang had a dream of letting her marry someone from the city. Unexpectedly, Wang Xia did not live up to her expectations in school. That's it.
Mrs. Wang's self-confidence comes from Wang Xia's big butt, which is definitely material for having a son.
The first child of Mrs. Wang married into Wang's family was a daughter, and she endured a lot of trials and tribulations. It was not until she gave birth to two sons that she finally felt proud and stood upright in Wang's family.This is also the reason why Mrs. Wang doesn't like Wang Cui. Whoever let her occupy the position of the first child didn't let Mrs. Wang get a boy in one fell swoop.
In Mrs. Wang's view, a woman who gave birth to a son to her husband's family and passed on the incense is a great hero to her husband's family.
Even the branch secretary's daughter-in-law fell in love with Wang Xia's body, and arranged for two young people to meet each other last year.What happened, the branch secretary's son fell in love with Wang Xia, but Wang Xia didn't like the branch secretary's son because he thought he was too dark!
In Chen Wan's eyes, Wang Xia is short and fat, but according to today's general aesthetics, being fat means good fortune, plus Wang Xia has never done any work, she has white and tender skin, big breasts and big buttocks, It is not surprising that the branch secretary's son will take a fancy to her.
As for why Zhou Mei didn't like it - to be honest, a normal person would probably think that it was flowers stuck in cow dung when they saw Chen Wan standing next to Wang Xia.
The branch secretary's son is dead, and the new wife's belly is eight months old. Mrs. Wang plans to wait for Wang Xia to die of marrying Chen Wan, and then introduce her to the second one, who will be 23 soon. up.
Mrs. Wang invited a matchmaker to come to her door to say goodbye. After hearing who Mrs. Wang was talking about, the matchmaker let out a cry of surprise.
"Chen Wan? That Chen Wan from the Chen family in Ping'an Village?" The matchmaker looked like you were talking nonsense during the day, "Sister, stop joking with me."
Who in the ten miles and eight villages doesn't know the conditions of the Chen family, the third brother Chen Jianjun is the commander of the army, and Chen Wan is a high school graduate, and he is not blind.
Mrs. Wang was afraid that she wanted to be kicked out by the Chen family, and the matchmaker couldn't do it.
"Big sister, don't worry, I just ask you to ask for help." Mrs. Wang touched a dollar and came out, "If you can't make it, don't force it."
The matchmaker changed his face in a second, and while reaching out to take the money, he smiled and talked to Mrs. Wang: "Don't worry, elder sister, I will help you out this afternoon."
Mrs. Wang withdrew her hand and exchanged one yuan for fifty cents: "I'll give you the remaining fifty cents when I come back."
The matchmaker twitched the corners of his mouth and scolded Mrs. Wang for being stingy. This kind of person still wants to marry his daughter to the Chen family, and he doesn't piss to see what he looks like.
Fifty cents is money, and the matchmaker doesn't dislike it, anyway, she won't say anything nice to the Wang family.
After collecting the money, the matchmaker turned his head and left, sat for a long time without even drinking his saliva, so he could die.
"Auntie, auntie, wait." Not long after the matchmaker walked out of Wang's house, a female voice came from behind, she turned around, and Wang Xia chased after her, panting, the flesh on her face kept shaking as she ran .
The matchmaker stopped and waited for Wang Xia to approach, and asked her what was the matter.
"Ma'am, you take this egg." Just now, Mrs. Wang gave the matchmaker the fifty cents. Wang Xia hid behind the door and saw it clearly. The ten eggs saved by the old lady were wrapped in cloth and caught up, and asked the matchmaker to help her with more snacks, "If the matter is completed, I will give you another five yuan."
Five yuan, not including the Chen family's share.The matchmaker moved: "Don't worry, this matter is on me."
The matchmaker boasted a lot, regardless of whether he could succeed, she tricked the egg first.
Wang Xia seemed to have seen the scene where Chen Wan said she wanted to marry her, so she couldn't help laughing.
The matchmaker's idea changed from being a talker to trying to make a match, so she spent half a day inquiring about Chen Wan's news before coming to the door, trying to find a breakthrough.
She has worked as a matchmaker for more than ten years, and she has already summed up a set of her own experience.It doesn't matter if the conditions are not equal, she will support one and step on the other, and pull them to the same level.
In the afternoon, one or two firecrackers exploded from time to time in Ping'an Village. It was children playing with squibs they picked up.
A small squib can play dozens of tricks in the hands of boys.They either covered the firecrackers with broken tiles, ignited the fuses and ran away, watching the tiles fly in the explosion and fall to the ground torn apart.Either dig a pit on the ground, throw firecrackers into it, and with a bang, the pit splashes smoke and dust.
The power of soil firecrackers is not small, and the unparalleled excitement makes a group of children frequently try on the edge of danger.
"Chen Yongyang!" The voice full of warning made the children who were discussing how to set off the next firecrackers turn around, and scattered when they found out the identity of the visitor.
"Brother Yongfei is back, everyone run!"
Chen Yongyang, who has been slapped by his brother since he was a child, shrank his head and ran away, but he was caught by the collar with a big hand within two steps: "Chen Yongyang, what did I tell you? ?"
"I'm sorry brother, I was wrong!" Chen Yongyang admitted for a second, and he could see that Chen Yongfei had accumulated a lot of power in his heart.
During the Chinese New Year period, news of children being injured by firing squibs emerged one after another, and the most serious one was blinded. Chen Yongfei's worries were not groundless.
Chen Yongfei let go of Chen Yongyang's collar, bent down and took out a few squibs from his trouser pocket: "I confiscated them."
Chen Yongyang dared not speak out, his small face was extremely wronged.Chen Yongfei peeled a piece of fruit candy and stuffed it into his younger brother's mouth. Chen Yongyang, who remembers eating but not beating, immediately said that he has a lot of adults, so he doesn't care about it with his brother.
"Brother, why did you come back? Mom has been waiting for you at home all morning!" Chen Yongyang sipped the sweet and sour fruit candy, and walked in front of Chen Yongfei.
Today is the 29th of the twelfth lunar month. Since receiving Chen Yongfei's reply, Zhou Mei has been looking forward to this day. She didn't go anywhere in the morning, staring at the courtyard gate eagerly.
Chen Yongfei has big strides, eager to go home, he speeds up, Chen Yongyang who was walking in front of him had to trot to keep up.
"Yongfei is back." Wang Cui was wearing a coat made by Chen Wan, holding a child in one hand, and was going to have a reunion dinner at the home of the third uncle He.
"Well, Aunt Wang." In Chen Yongfei's memory, Wang Cui has always been dressed in dusty and torn clothes. This is the first time he saw the other party wearing new clothes, so he couldn't help but take a second look.
Wang Cui noticed his scrutiny, and tugged at the hem of his clothes: "Has Yong Fei seen clothes like mine in the city?"
Chen Yongfei shook his head honestly, Wang Cui pointed to the courtyard of the Chen family: "Your uncle did it."
What?His uncle did it?
Chen Yongfei was surprised and at a loss, when will his uncle be able to make clothes, why didn't he know?
Wang Cui led the child down the road, and when Chen Yongfei was talking to Wang Cui, Chen Yongyang had already entered the yard and told Zhou Mei that his brother had returned.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back." The last time Chen Yongfei went home was half a year ago, and Zhou Mei greeted him quickly: "I lost weight."
Chen Yongfei is already used to this: "I'm not thin, but I've gained two catties. If you don't believe me, give me a pinch."
Chen Jinjin didn't talk much, he just looked at Chen Yongfei, and seeing that his expression was more stable, he nodded in relief.
The two Chen Xing sisters came up to call their brother, and Chen Yongfei took off the bag behind him, and took out the things for the family one by one.
He usually does not spend money recklessly, and saves all his monthly salary except for necessary expenses, so he is very affluent.
Chen Wan was reading in the room when she heard a voice and got up and walked out.In the original body's memory, Chen Yongfei, the eldest nephew, can be seen almost everywhere.
"Uncle!" Seeing Chen Wan, Chen Yongfei stopped what he was doing.
Chen Yongfei's face is four parts like Chen Qianjin and six parts like Zhou Mei, and his height is similar to Chen Wan's, but his physique is much stronger.
"Yongfei is back." Chen Wan felt kind to Chen Yongfei in his heart, partly because of the memory of his original body, and partly because Chen Yongfei made him feel like a cousin in his previous life.
"Uncle, I just met Aunt Wang at the door, she said that you made the dress on her, is it true?" Chen Yongfei asked curiously.
"Of course it's true!" Chen Yongyang answered Chen Yongfei inarticulately with sugar in his mouth, "Little uncle has made a lot of clothes, and we all have them!"
The Chen Xing sisters nodded, and Zhou Mei smiled and explained to Chen Yongfei: "I can't finish this matter in a few words. Your father and I thought you would come back during the Chinese New Year, so we didn't write it in the letter."
Chen Yongfei listened to the past, and then looked at Zhou Mei's new clothes. The shock on his face lasted for a long time.
Before he could mention it, Chen Wan took out the tape measure: "I didn't know your size before, so I didn't make it for you."
Zhou Mei and the others all had new clothes, so Chen Wan would naturally not miss out on Chen Yongfei's.
In fact, Chen Yongfei has no shortage of clothes to wear. The machinery factory distributes uniforms all year round. The quality is better than those bought outside. He likes to wear them very much.
But these are clothes made by Chen Wan himself, Chen Yongfei is not willing to refuse.He happily raised his arm for Chen Wan to take the measurement, with a smile in his eyes: "Uncle, take your time, I can come back for ten days this time, don't worry."
Zhou Mei bought Chen Yongfei's fabric later, and the uncle and nephew have a good relationship. If Chen Wan didn't wear the clothes made by Chen Wan, Chen Yongfei wouldn't say anything, and he wasn't sure what to think.
"Wow, radio!" Chen Yongyang took out the metal object under Chen Yongfei's bag with both hands.
"Yes, the radio." After Chen Yongfei measured the size, he picked up the radio that Chen Yongyang had put on the table and fiddled with it a few times, unfolding the antenna. After the sizzle current, a clear male voice came out from it.
Chen Yongyang and Chen Lu leaned over the table and put their faces in front of the radio, their eyes were extremely strange.
The Chen family used to have a radio, which was bought by Second Sister Chen and Fifth Sister Chen with pooled money in [-].After having a radio, every night Chen Jiatang's room was full of people.
Until one month before Chen Wan's college entrance examination, the radio was completely broken, and Chen Jinjin sent it to the town and county without repairing it.The family has been lost for a long time. Without the radio, life feels a lot less fun.
"How much did you pay for it?" Zhou Mei carefully touched the fuselage. The one Chen Yongfei brought back looks more upscale than the previous one.
"I have a ticket, it's not expensive." Chen Yongfei waved his hand, "Dad, what about the broken radio in our house? You take it out, and I'll see if I can fix it."
Chen Yongfei's talent in machinery is far better than his study, otherwise he would not have reached the level of team leader after two years in the factory.
While the radio was being repaired, Zhou Mei went to the kitchen to boil eggs in sugar water with sugar and lard in them, which smelled delicious.Chen Yongfei's lunch was made casually on the road, and his mouth would automatically salivate when he smelled it.
It's not Zhou Mei's style to let other people watch Chen Yongfei eat, and Chen Yongfei can't do it alone, so Zhou Mei cooked a total of ten eggs and put them in five bowls, two for each person, no one is partial.
"You guys eat, I'll go with your dad to borrow the table and bench for tomorrow." When Chen Yongfei came back, Zhou Mei's concern was also realized.
Uncle Chen and his family are going to come over for dinner tomorrow, so Zhou Mei went to their house to borrow it.
Chen Yongfei ate the eggs in two or three bites, then tossed out the old radio.
Chen Yongfei was unavoidably mentioned when borrowing a table and stool. When he learned that he had bought a new radio, Uncle Chen stopped smoking, so he came over to listen to it.
The Chen family is not stingy, but since everyone is in the main room, it is not convenient for Chen Wan to make clothes.
"Let's carry the sewing machine into the Liu'er room." Chen Qianjin did what he said, and together with Chen Yongfei carried the sewing machine in and placed it side by side with the desk.
Chen Wan was very satisfied with the result, it saved him from blowing through the hall every day.
Chen Yongfei repaired half of the old radio and found that an important part was missing. He planned to take it to the factory for a try after the Spring Festival.
More and more people came to listen to the radio, sitting and standing. Fortunately, Chen Wan is the kind who is not easily disturbed by the external environment, otherwise she might be too noisy to concentrate.
"Excuse me, is sister-in-law Zhou at home? I'm here to announce the good news to you—" The matchmaker stepped into the courtyard door, and before he could see what was going on in the room, his mouth was faster than his eyes.
In an instant, dozens of pairs of eyes in the main room looked at her, and the matchmaker backed away in fright, wondering what the Chen family was doing, and why there were so many people.
She wanted to leave subconsciously, Zhou Mei walked out of the main room: "I'm here, are you looking for me?"
Hearing the word "good news", Zhou Mei's first reaction was that Chen Wan had received the admission letter from the university.
Although Chen Wan repeatedly stated that he did not do well in the exam and had no hope of passing the exam, Zhou Mei still had a little luck in her heart.As the saying goes, there are still three thousand nails in a broken ship. Chen Wan is not a broken ship. His previous achievements are real. If everything is correct, he can get points, right?
The moment she saw the other party, Zhou Mei's luck was shattered.The person who came was not from their village. He was wearing a cotton-padded jacket with big flowers and looked like a typical rural woman.
It was obviously too late to leave now, the matchmaker smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Zhou, I am Yang Erni."
Zhou Mei was recently helping Zhang Cheng and the others to find a suitable match partner. She had heard about Yang Erni's name and knew her identity as a matchmaker.
It was precisely because she knew that she was a matchmaker that Zhou Mei was even more puzzled, where did the good news come from?
Reaching out to not hit the smiling face, Zhou Mei brought a stool for Yang Erni to sit under the eaves, the main room was too crowded.
"Sister-in-law Zhou, your house is so lively today." A matchmaker is not afraid of dealing with people, Yang Erni only lost her composure when she entered the door, and her face was very natural at the moment.
"I bought a radio at home, let's listen to it." Zhou Mei didn't talk to Yang Erni, and went straight to the point, "What do you want from me?"
"A happy event, a great happy event." It's already here, not to mention that she seems guilty, Yang Erni lowered her voice, "Someone has taken a fancy to your family, Chen Wan, and asked me to make a deal."
Fancy Chen Wan?Why did Zhou Mei feel that it sounded so bad, she suppressed her smile: "Trouble you, it's a waste of time, we Chen Wan have no intention of talking about kissing now."
"Hey, sister-in-law Zhou, wait until I finish." Seeing that Zhou Mei wanted to see off the guests, Yang Erni grabbed the bench under her, "You also know the woman."
Yang Erni thought she had lowered her voice, but she was used to the loudness, and even if she lowered her voice, people in the room could still hear her.For a while, no one cared about the radio, and all listened to Yang Erni's words.
Not to mention that it has nothing to do with knowing each other, but Zhou Mei was curious about who asked Yang Erni to be a matchmaker, so she let her continue talking.
"It's Wang Xia, the younger sister of Wang Cui next door to you. You've met that girl, she looks like a child...Hey, sister-in-law Zhou, don't drag me, let's talk if we have something to say."
Zhou Mei had nothing to say. If she had known she was talking about Wang Xia, she should have kicked him out the moment she entered the door.
She refused so simply that day, Wang Xia dared to send someone to her door to propose marriage, how shameless she was!
"Yongfei, look at your younger brothers and sisters, I'll go out and take a look." Chen Qianjin was worried that Zhou Mei would suffer, but the radio couldn't be left alone, so he asked Chen Yongfei to watch in the room.
"Chen Wan doesn't want to say goodbye, you can go." Zhou Mei turned cold, "Go back and tell Wang Xia to let her give up as soon as possible, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
"Sister-in-law Zhou, don't blame me for being blunt. If you ask me, Wang Xia and you Chen Wan are absolutely perfect..."
Zhou Mei couldn't stand Yang Erni's nonsense, so she pushed her out.
Yang Erni has been a matchmaker for more than ten years, and it was the first time she met someone who was kicked out without saying a few words.With so many people in the Chen family, she lost all face.
She stomped her foot in front of the Chen family's courtyard resentfully, and didn't talk about kissing, ah, don't even think about it when the time comes!
"Wang Xia fell in love with Chen Wan? What's the matter?" Chunlai's daughter-in-law arrived late and stood near the door of the main room. What surprised her was not that someone fell in love with Chen Wan, but that it was Wang who fell in love with Chen Wan. Xia.
Wang Xia was so shameless, Zhou Mei didn't bother to cover it up for her, so she explained clearly what happened that day: "I didn't understand why she thought that Chen Wan would like her."
"She really dares to think about it." Chunlai's daughter-in-law was full of shock, Chen Wan is such a talented person, with such a rotten peach blossom for no reason, the bad luck of the Chinese New Year is dead.
"Chen Wan is going to college, and she won't think about getting married in the past few years." Taking advantage of the crowd, Zhou Mei straightened out the words, so as to avoid Wang Erxia and Wang Sanxia from appearing later.
Still angry, Yang Erni went to Wang's house to reply to the letter, took the remaining fifty cents from Mrs. Wang, and said under Wang Xia's expectant eyes: "It didn't work."
"Why didn't it work? Madam, did you say it well?" Wang Xia was in a hurry. She even offered to kiss her, but Chen Wan didn't agree.
How could Yang Erni tell Wang Xia that she was kicked out by Zhou Mei halfway, she looked helpless: "I've said all the good things, but people just don't agree with me, what can I do."
Mrs. Wang patted Wang Xia's arm and signaled her to calm down: "Ah Xia, don't be sad. Mom will find you someone better than Chen Wan later."
Wang Xia lowered her head and said nothing, wondering if she had listened to Mrs. Wang's words.
Mrs. Wang said it was easy, but she didn't know it in her heart. The son of the party secretary with the best conditions was lost by Wang Xia, and the rest of the bunch were dwarfs and generals, each with its own shortcomings.
"Big sister, you have a lot of knowledge, do you have any male dolls who are in good health, honest and hardworking, and have no burden at home to introduce to us, Axia?" Mrs. Wang sent Yang Erni to the yard and stood under the windshield wall.
Parents hope that their daughter can marry a good man, Yang Erni understands, but there is no good thing in the world to take advantage of, and a boy who meets Mrs. Wang's requirements is not at all Wang Xia's turn.
No, there really is one.
A name suddenly appeared in Yang Erni's head. Seeing that she didn't directly refuse, Mrs. Wang knew there was something going on, so she quickly whispered a gift of ten yuan to her as a thank-you gift.
ten bucks!
Yang Erni stopped hesitating: "There is such a person, but I guess your daughter won't like it."
"She has to like it if she doesn't like it." Mrs. Wang is not going to pamper Wang Xia anymore. She is 23 after the Chinese New Year, and there are a few good girls in their 20s who are still unmarried.
If women don't stay in university, if they stay or stay, they will become enemies.If you really let her procrastinate becoming an old girl, in the end you have to blame her as a mother.
With Mrs. Wang's permission, Yang Erni let go of her worries: "You know Xu Kongshan, right? The one in Ping'an Village."
Thanks to Sun Dahua, Xu Kongshan is no less familiar with Mrs. Wang than Chen Wan.
"You're fooling me!" Mrs. Wang frowned, "Is Xu Kongshan's so poor a wife that Wang Xia from my family can marry?"
"Oh, you've been listening to the old calendar from so many years ago." Yang Erni knew that she didn't understand Xu Kongshan's current situation when she saw Mrs. Wang's reaction. .Think about it for yourself, what does he not meet your requirements. "
He is in good health and can kill a wild boar by himself; he is honest and willing to work, and earns full work points every year.
Look how it fits.
"Don't hurry up for Wang Xia. When Xu Kongshan finishes building the house, most of the girls want to marry." Yang Erni almost said that she was moved. If her two daughters were not married, she really wanted Xu Kongshan Be a son-in-law.
"Then tell me?" Mrs. Wang believed Yang Erni's words, "Set a time to meet."
It doesn't work with Chen Wan, but it's no problem with Xu Kongshan.Mrs. Wang didn't think about the possibility of Xu Kongshan's refusal. Xu Kongshan was not a burden, but there was no one to help.
"Wait until I'm free." Yang Erni also has a family to take care of. She has a lot of things to do on the [-]th day of the Lunar New Year, worshiping the ancestors on the first day of the first lunar month, and returning to her natal home on the second day of the first lunar month.
Moreover, Xu Kongshan is currently living in Chen's house, and Yang Erni has just been dragged out by Zhou Meilian, she doesn't want to get into trouble.
The author has something to say: Chen Wan: Where is my knife? ? ?
In addition, even if the Chen family can agree, Mrs. Wang doesn't want Wang Xia to marry—Chen Wan is so weak, can that thing work?
Since she was a child, her daughter hadn't suffered a bit because she looked like her.She dared to pat her chest and said that even the daughters of urbanites are rarely raised so carefully, and Mrs. Wang couldn't bear her to marry a worthless man.

A small squib can play dozens of tricks in the hands of boys.They either covered the firecrackers with broken tiles, ignited the fuses and ran away, watching the tiles fly in the explosion and fall to the ground torn apart.Either dig a pit on the ground, throw firecrackers into it, and with a bang, the pit splashes smoke and dust.

Chen Yongfei shook his head honestly, Wang Cui pointed to the courtyard of the Chen family: "Your uncle did it."
What?His uncle did it?
Chen Yongfei was surprised and at a loss, when will his uncle be able to make clothes, why didn't he know?
Wang Cui led the child down the road, and when Chen Yongfei was talking to Wang Cui, Chen Yongyang had already entered the yard and told Zhou Mei that his brother had returned.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back." The last time Chen Yongfei went home was half a year ago, and Zhou Mei greeted him quickly: "I lost weight."
Chen Yongfei is already used to this: "I'm not thin, but I've gained two catties. If you don't believe me, give me a pinch."
Chen Jinjin didn't talk much, he just looked at Chen Yongfei, and seeing that his expression was more stable, he nodded in relief.
The two Chen Xing sisters came up to call their brother, and Chen Yongfei took off the bag behind him, and took out the things for the family one by one.
He usually does not spend money recklessly, and saves all his monthly salary except for necessary expenses, so he is very affluent.
Chen Wan was reading in the room when she heard a voice and got up and walked out.In the original body's memory, Chen Yongfei, the eldest nephew, can be seen almost everywhere.
"Uncle!" Seeing Chen Wan, Chen Yongfei stopped what he was doing.
Chen Yongfei's face is four parts like Chen Qianjin and six parts like Zhou Mei, and his height is similar to Chen Wan's, but his physique is much stronger.
"Yongfei is back." Chen Wan felt kind to Chen Yongfei in his heart, partly because of the memory of his original body, and partly because Chen Yongfei made him feel like a cousin in his previous life.
"Uncle, I just met Aunt Wang at the door, she said that you made the dress on her, is it true?" Chen Yongfei asked curiously.
"Of course it's true!" Chen Yongyang answered Chen Yongfei inarticulately with sugar in his mouth, "Little uncle has made a lot of clothes, and we all have them!"
The Chen Xing sisters nodded, and Zhou Mei smiled and explained to Chen Yongfei: "I can't finish this matter in a few words. Your father and I thought you would come back during the Chinese New Year, so we didn't write it in the letter."
Chen Yongfei listened to the past, and then looked at Zhou Mei's new clothes. The shock on his face lasted for a long time.
Before he could mention it, Chen Wan took out the tape measure: "I didn't know your size before, so I didn't make it for you."
Zhou Mei and the others all had new clothes, so Chen Wan would naturally not miss out on Chen Yongfei's.
In fact, Chen Yongfei has no shortage of clothes to wear. The machinery factory distributes uniforms all year round. The quality is better than those bought outside. He likes to wear them very much.
But these are clothes made by Chen Wan himself, Chen Yongfei is not willing to refuse.He happily raised his arm for Chen Wan to take the measurement, with a smile in his eyes: "Uncle, take your time, I can come back for ten days this time, don't worry."
Zhou Mei bought Chen Yongfei's fabric later, and the uncle and nephew have a good relationship. If Chen Wan didn't wear the clothes made by Chen Wan, Chen Yongfei wouldn't say anything, and he wasn't sure what to think.
"Wow, radio!" Chen Yongyang took out the metal object under Chen Yongfei's bag with both hands.
"Yes, the radio." After Chen Yongfei measured the size, he picked up the radio that Chen Yongyang had put on the table and fiddled with it a few times, unfolding the antenna. After the sizzle current, a clear male voice came out from it.
Chen Yongyang and Chen Lu leaned over the table and put their faces in front of the radio, their eyes were extremely strange.
The Chen family used to have a radio, which was bought by Second Sister Chen and Fifth Sister Chen with pooled money in [-].After having a radio, every night Chen Jiatang's room was full of people.
Until one month before Chen Wan's college entrance examination, the radio was completely broken, and Chen Jinjin sent it to the town and county without repairing it.The family has been lost for a long time. Without the radio, life feels a lot less fun.
"How much did you pay for it?" Zhou Mei carefully touched the fuselage. The one Chen Yongfei brought back looks more upscale than the previous one.
"I have a ticket, it's not expensive." Chen Yongfei waved his hand, "Dad, what about the broken radio in our house? You take it out, and I'll see if I can fix it."
Chen Yongfei's talent in machinery is far better than his study, otherwise he would not have reached the level of team leader after two years in the factory.
While the radio was being repaired, Zhou Mei went to the kitchen to boil eggs in sugar water with sugar and lard in them, which smelled delicious.Chen Yongfei's lunch was made casually on the road, and his mouth would automatically salivate when he smelled it.
It's not Zhou Mei's style to let other people watch Chen Yongfei eat, and Chen Yongfei can't do it alone, so Zhou Mei cooked a total of ten eggs and put them in five bowls, two for each person, no one is partial.
"You guys eat, I'll go with your dad to borrow the table and bench for tomorrow." When Chen Yongfei came back, Zhou Mei's concern was also realized.
Uncle Chen and his family are going to come over for dinner tomorrow, so Zhou Mei went to their house to borrow it.
Chen Yongfei ate the eggs in two or three bites, then tossed out the old radio.
Chen Yongfei was unavoidably mentioned when borrowing a table and stool. When he learned that he had bought a new radio, Uncle Chen stopped smoking, so he came over to listen to it.
The Chen family is not stingy, but since everyone is in the main room, it is not convenient for Chen Wan to make clothes.
"Let's carry the sewing machine into the Liu'er room." Chen Qianjin did what he said, and together with Chen Yongfei carried the sewing machine in and placed it side by side with the desk.
Chen Wan was very satisfied with the result, it saved him from blowing through the hall every day.
Chen Yongfei repaired half of the old radio and found that an important part was missing. He planned to take it to the factory for a try after the Spring Festival.
More and more people came to listen to the radio, sitting and standing. Fortunately, Chen Wan is the kind who is not easily disturbed by the external environment, otherwise she might be too noisy to concentrate.
"Excuse me, is sister-in-law Zhou at home? I'm here to announce the good news to you—" The matchmaker stepped into the courtyard door, and before he could see what was going on in the room, his mouth was faster than his eyes.
In an instant, dozens of pairs of eyes in the main room looked at her, and the matchmaker backed away in fright, wondering what the Chen family was doing, and why there were so many people.
She wanted to leave subconsciously, Zhou Mei walked out of the main room: "I'm here, are you looking for me?"
Hearing the word "good news", Zhou Mei's first reaction was that Chen Wan had received the admission letter from the university.
Although Chen Wan repeatedly stated that he did not do well in the exam and had no hope of passing the exam, Zhou Mei still had a little luck in her heart.As the saying goes, there are still three thousand nails in a broken ship. Chen Wan is not a broken ship. His previous achievements are real. If everything is correct, he can get points, right?
The moment she saw the other party, Zhou Mei's luck was shattered.The person who came was not from their village. He was wearing a cotton-padded jacket with big flowers and looked like a typical rural woman.
It was obviously too late to leave now, the matchmaker smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Zhou, I am Yang Erni."
Zhou Mei was recently helping Zhang Cheng and the others to find a suitable match partner. She had heard about Yang Erni's name and knew her identity as a matchmaker.
It was precisely because she knew that she was a matchmaker that Zhou Mei was even more puzzled, where did the good news come from?
Reaching out to not hit the smiling face, Zhou Mei brought a stool for Yang Erni to sit under the eaves, the main room was too crowded.
"Sister-in-law Zhou, your house is so lively today." A matchmaker is not afraid of dealing with people, Yang Erni only lost her composure when she entered the door, and her face was very natural at the moment.
"I bought a radio at home, let's listen to it." Zhou Mei didn't talk to Yang Erni, and went straight to the point, "What do you want from me?"
"A happy event, a great happy event." It's already here, not to mention that she seems guilty, Yang Erni lowered her voice, "Someone has taken a fancy to your family, Chen Wan, and asked me to make a deal."
Fancy Chen Wan?Why did Zhou Mei feel that it sounded so bad, she suppressed her smile: "Trouble you, it's a waste of time, we Chen Wan have no intention of talking about kissing now."
"Hey, sister-in-law Zhou, wait until I finish." Seeing that Zhou Mei wanted to see off the guests, Yang Erni grabbed the bench under her, "You also know the woman."
Yang Erni thought she had lowered her voice, but she was used to the loudness, and even if she lowered her voice, people in the room could still hear her.For a while, no one cared about the radio, and all listened to Yang Erni's words.
Not to mention that it has nothing to do with knowing each other, but Zhou Mei was curious about who asked Yang Erni to be a matchmaker, so she let her continue talking.
"It's Wang Xia, the younger sister of Wang Cui next door to you. You've met that girl, she looks like a child...Hey, sister-in-law Zhou, don't drag me, let's talk if we have something to say."
Zhou Mei had nothing to say. If she had known she was talking about Wang Xia, she should have kicked him out the moment she entered the door.
She refused so simply that day, Wang Xia dared to send someone to her door to propose marriage, how shameless she was!
"Yongfei, look at your younger brothers and sisters, I'll go out and take a look." Chen Qianjin was worried that Zhou Mei would suffer, but the radio couldn't be left alone, so he asked Chen Yongfei to watch in the room.
"Chen Wan doesn't want to say goodbye, you can go." Zhou Mei turned cold, "Go back and tell Wang Xia to let her give up as soon as possible, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
"Sister-in-law Zhou, don't blame me for being blunt. If you ask me, Wang Xia and you Chen Wan are absolutely perfect..."
Zhou Mei couldn't stand Yang Erni's nonsense, so she pushed her out.
Yang Erni has been a matchmaker for more than ten years, and it was the first time she met someone who was kicked out without saying a few words.With so many people in the Chen family, she lost all face.
She stomped her foot in front of the Chen family's courtyard resentfully, and didn't talk about kissing, ah, don't even think about it when the time comes!
"Wang Xia fell in love with Chen Wan? What's the matter?" Chunlai's daughter-in-law arrived late and stood near the door of the main room. What surprised her was not that someone fell in love with Chen Wan, but that it was Wang who fell in love with Chen Wan. Xia.
Wang Xia was so shameless, Zhou Mei didn't bother to cover it up for her, so she explained clearly what happened that day: "I didn't understand why she thought that Chen Wan would like her."
"She really dares to think about it." Chunlai's daughter-in-law was full of shock, Chen Wan is such a talented person, with such a rotten peach blossom for no reason, the bad luck of the Chinese New Year is dead.
"Chen Wan is going to college, and she won't think about getting married in the past few years." Taking advantage of the crowd, Zhou Mei straightened out the words, so as to avoid Wang Erxia and Wang Sanxia from appearing later.
Still angry, Yang Erni went to Wang's house to reply to the letter, took the remaining fifty cents from Mrs. Wang, and said under Wang Xia's expectant eyes: "It didn't work."
"Why didn't it work? Madam, did you say it well?" Wang Xia was in a hurry. She even offered to kiss her, but Chen Wan didn't agree.
How could Yang Erni tell Wang Xia that she was kicked out by Zhou Mei halfway, she looked helpless: "I've said all the good things, but people just don't agree with me, what can I do."
Mrs. Wang patted Wang Xia's arm and signaled her to calm down: "Ah Xia, don't be sad. Mom will find you someone better than Chen Wan later."
Wang Xia lowered her head and said nothing, wondering if she had listened to Mrs. Wang's words.
Mrs. Wang said it was easy, but she didn't know it in her heart. The son of the party secretary with the best conditions was lost by Wang Xia, and the rest of the bunch were dwarfs and generals, each with its own shortcomings.
"Big sister, you have a lot of knowledge, do you have any male dolls who are in good health, honest and hardworking, and have no burden at home to introduce to us, Axia?" Mrs. Wang sent Yang Erni to the yard and stood under the windshield wall.
Parents hope that their daughter can marry a good man, Yang Erni understands, but there is no good thing in the world to take advantage of, and a boy who meets Mrs. Wang's requirements is not at all Wang Xia's turn.
No, there really is one.
A name suddenly appeared in Yang Erni's head. Seeing that she didn't directly refuse, Mrs. Wang knew there was something going on, so she quickly whispered a gift of ten yuan to her as a thank-you gift.
ten bucks!
Yang Erni stopped hesitating: "There is such a person, but I guess your daughter won't like it."
"She has to like it if she doesn't like it." Mrs. Wang is not going to pamper Wang Xia anymore. She is 23 after the Chinese New Year, and there are a few good girls in their 20s who are still unmarried.
If women don't stay in university, if they stay or stay, they will become enemies.If you really let her procrastinate becoming an old girl, in the end you have to blame her as a mother.
With Mrs. Wang's permission, Yang Erni let go of her worries: "You know Xu Kongshan, right? The one in Ping'an Village."
Thanks to Sun Dahua, Xu Kongshan is no less familiar with Mrs. Wang than Chen Wan.
"You're fooling me!" Mrs. Wang frowned, "Is Xu Kongshan's so poor a wife that Wang Xia from my family can marry?"
"Oh, you've been listening to the old calendar from so many years ago." Yang Erni knew that she didn't understand Xu Kongshan's current situation when she saw Mrs. Wang's reaction. .Think about it for yourself, what does he not meet your requirements. "
He is in good health and can kill a wild boar by himself; he is honest and willing to work, and earns full work points every year.
Look how it fits.
"Don't hurry up for Wang Xia. When Xu Kongshan finishes building the house, most of the girls want to marry." Yang Erni almost said that she was moved. If her two daughters were not married, she really wanted Xu Kongshan Be a son-in-law.
"Then tell me?" Mrs. Wang believed Yang Erni's words, "Set a time to meet."
It doesn't work with Chen Wan, but it's no problem with Xu Kongshan.Mrs. Wang didn't think about the possibility of Xu Kongshan's refusal. Xu Kongshan was not a burden, but there was no one to help.
"Wait until I'm free." Yang Erni also has a family to take care of. She has a lot of things to do on the [-]th day of the Lunar New Year, worshiping the ancestors on the first day of the first lunar month, and returning to her natal home on the second day of the first lunar month.
Moreover, Xu Kongshan is currently living in Chen's house, and Yang Erni has just been dragged out by Zhou Meilian, she doesn't want to get into trouble.
The author has something to say: Chen Wan: Where is my knife? ? ?
